Baby Shower card

Hi Everyone,

a good friend of mine is expecting her first baby and today was her baby shower, so I can show you the card I made for this joyful occasion.


I have had this Simon Says Stamp set (We're Expecting) forever and sadly had been unused, until now. It is so old, they don't even have it in their store anymore. Not sure why, it' such a terrific set!
I colored with Inktense. I fussy cut the bird in the egg and stamped another wing from the mother bird, nestled them both in and glued them in place.
I had a left over half strip of Washi tape, which made it on the card and a heart enamel dot.


Love this! Too bad most of my friends are older and already have children. I wouldn't mind making more of those cards.....

Happy Stamping!

Ja ja, mal wieder eine typische Cornelia-Karte!!!
sie gefällt mir sehr gut. Schade, dass ich keinen Nachwuchs mehr bekomme - ich selber, nicht meine Tochter oder so. aber die ist auch bald dran. ich bin schon recht aufgeregt, denn ende Juli fahre ich hin und erwarte gemeinsam mit ihr die neue Erdenbürgerin.
LG Flo

This is adorable, Cornelia. I recently made one of my first baby cards for a challenge because I don't have much use for them. Now I can use it because my grandson and his wife just announced they are expecting a baby boy in January.
That is so cute! What a great baby card design.

Ja, Babykarten müssen nicht immer quietschesüß sein. Und mal ganz ehrlich, die Hauptleistung vollbringt ja erst einmal die Mama!!

Oh my, what a sweet card, Cornelia ... apart from the fabulous colouring (of course!), I do love how you've nestled the little bird in it's egg into the cosy wings of the mummy bird ... so cute! Hugs, Anita :)

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
